I know that having a grey beard, being male and 70 does not make me a typical member here... if I am wrong - then please tell me.

This video is about Fasting for those of us who are over forty... sensible people who might want to stay young for longer.

Well I’m male, 70 and have a grey beard so there’s at least two of us. Thanks for video.

Hi, Hidden ... fellow greybeard!

I have AF, I am on Eliquis and I have had two catheter ablations!

That's a very age'ist comment if you ask me 😀

Thanks for this S11m I did not realise that for over 40s, 3-4 20hr fasts per week with calorie cycling is better.

His aim seems to be primarily fat loss, is that right?

I'm guessing from other research that 16:8 over 40 still has all the other benefits.

I think he is mostly a body-builder - so his interest would be fat loss without loss of lean mass... but he mentions autophagy and longevity?

Not what you're looking for?
